Team newsCeltic captain Scott Brown suspended, while fellow midfielders Callum McGregor, Ryan Christie and Tom Rogic, plus goalkeeper Fraser Forster and striker Odsonne Edouard, have been rested. Goalkeeper Craig Gordon, right-back Moritz Bauer, midfielder Nir Bitton, winger Scott Sinclair and strikers Leigh Griffiths and Vakoun Issouf Bayo will feature. Meanwhile, 16-year-old winger Karamoko Dembele, 18-year-old midfielder Scott Robertson and 19-year-old striker Grant Savoury could make their debuts.
Of course, the message being to stay at home. Will Coutinho ever play for Bayern again? Like all professionals, Coutinho now has to do one thing - wait and see. Considering Coutinho is on loan from Barcelona to Bayern until June 30, his contract situation is even more complicated. It is currently unrealistic to think the Bundesliga season can really be completed by the end of June and we don't know what will happen to players with expiring contracts.
The SFA employs about 170 people, with BBC Scotland learning between 50-60 have been furloughed. The SPFL, employing about 20 staff, has had a quarter of its workforce placed on the scheme. Coronavirus - what are your club saying?Celtic wage cuts possible - LennonFinishing season now seeming unlikely as SPFL take legal advice"The impact of the virus on Scottish football is significant," said Petrie.
Pardubice is the favorite in this game. The hosts have been an unbeatable 20 games without defeat and even won 16 of them. In their own stadium, they won the last 5 games. However, the guests should not be underestimated: they play a very solid season, but occasionally weaken during away games. Now that it's against the leaders, I don't think they can take anything countable here. Pardubice is the leader of the table, they only have 3 points more than the second team and they will certainly not allow any of the teams to take the lead, so I hope that the hosts will win a dominant match and I expect Pardubice to win today without any problem in this game.
But we won't take them from the USA or England or Spain just to make our under-17 or under-19 team a little better. We want to find the special one. We were quite successful with Pulisic, Gio Reyna and Jacob Bruun Larsen. Larsen is a Dane, who arrived at Dortmund as a 16-year-old in 2015 and was sold to Hoffenheim in January for £7m. Of their current crop of youngsters, Switzerland forward Bradley Fink - who is English qualified and attracting the attention of the FA - plus Dutch midfielder Immanuel Pherai and Cameroon forward Youssoufa Moukoko, who both played against Derby, are the current youth team stars.
I knew Neman Grodno were the team for me the moment I saw their kit. And I knew for sure when their goalkeeper came up for a free-kick at 1-1 in a league game four weeks into the season. As a football journalist you often have to hide your allegiances, but in this case I cannot - I am a Neman Grodno fan (since 29 March). Following this Belarusian team and watching them every week have helped fill the void of having no ‘normal’ live football on.
Those calls are a bit fainter now after a run of one defeat in seven games and four wins in a row leading into this game. Boro are now ten points above the bottom three and only eight adrift of the final promotion play-off position. A form guide for the last ten league games has them second behind Leeds United.
Plymouth won 1-0 away at title-chasing Forest Green Rovers in the league last time out, while Bradford lost 2-1 at home against Rochdale in the EFL Trophy but it’s the visitors that sit higher in the table and look more prepared for the promotion challenge as things stand.
There was only one shot in each half at Molineux, with Brighton's Davy Propper drawing a routine save from Rui Patricio from distance. Wolves' Raul Jimenez hit a shot on the turn straight at Mat Ryan with 15 minutes to go. Leander Dendoncker went close to winning the game for Wolves late on when he shot over the crossbar.
The Colombian finished from six inches out before heading in the leveller. The visitors carried momentum into the second period without creating anything clear cut, but when Delph saw red for missed tackles on Pereyra and Etienne Capoue, Everton again looked hugely vulnerable. But they limited the Hornets and when former Watford player Richarlison raced away to slip in Moise Kean, his miss-hit finish fell fortunately for Walcott to seal a win that had looked so unlikely earlier in the afternoon.
West Ham, who enjoyed the better of the scoring opportunities until that point, remain 16th, above the bottom three only on goal difference. While David Moyes' side had limited possession, they took the game to their hosts, who came out of the blocks sluggishly and struggled to inject any tempo to their play. Jarrod Bowen's early shot was tipped on to a post by Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno and Michail Antonio failed to score from two clear chances either side of the interval.
They had more than enough chances to leave London with a point, not least when Calvert-Lewin found himself in space just a few yards out. But he was somehow unable to beat Leno, and also glanced a header from a corner just wide. Everton are used to getting worked over by Arsenal - they are winless in 24 visits to the Gunners and have conceded a Premier League-high 110 goals against them. But they will rarely leave with as much optimism following a defeat as after this.
There’s an innate humility in Scandinavian culture, and Solskjaer says he felt a connection with Manchester people. We don’t think we’re something we’re not, we just want to work hard,” he said. I feel Mancunians are mentally strong. He loved being at United, even if it meant being an irregular starter, and turned down a £5.
So he's staying here working with a personal coach on an individual programme and his family then can settle in England as well. That's a plus. Of course, he might have liked to have come with the players and got to know them," Solskjaer added. But we don’t want to take that risk [of potential border restrictions tightening].

Jota, however, is not just scoring some fabulous goals, he is also playing some wonderful football. His assist for Raul Jimenez to score Wolves' winner - against a Tottenham side who thought they had won the fixture - epitomised the form the Portugal international is in. Beware Wolves, this is a Manchester United player if ever I saw one. Did you know? Jota has scored six goals in his last three games in all competitions, in the space of 10 days.
I knew the angle was tight so I got enough on it to dink it over him. I thought it might be offside - I joked with my dad last night about what if I scored and it was ruled out!"Southampton forward Michael Obafemi: "It was good to get the goal but in the end it didn't mean anything. The boys just have to come together again. We had a good run, we'll try to pick it back up again and hopefully we do.
New formation, same resultFollowing his side's limp defeat at Crystal Palace last weekend, Steve Bruce said that a change in tactics may be required to prevent the Magpies from being dragged further into a relegation battle. Bruce's switch earlier in the season from a 3-5-2 to the 3-4-2-1 system that served Newcastle so well under Rafael Benitez paid off initially, as the team recovered from a poor start to climb into the top half of the table in December.
The international match calendar plays a central role in the sustainable growth of football in all regions of the world and at all levels," FIFA said in a new document 'The Vision 2020-2023: Making Football Truly Global'. For this reason, the current system should, once and for all, be discussed thoroughly with all stakeholders and reviewed according to their needs in a collective effort to guarantee a truly global approach," FIFA added.
Mary's Stadium on Saturday. With the Saints yet to keep a clean sheet at home this season, the game was peppered with tough tackles from both sides. Southampton's Pierre Hojbjerg literally had the shirt torn from his back in one early altercation. Palace had a first-half goal by Max Meyer ruled out by the video assistant referee (VAR) after fleet-footed winger Wilfried Zaha was found to have been offside during the build-up.
Jorginho of Chelsea FC celebrates scoring his teams first goal during the Premier League match between Arsenal FC and Chelsea FC at Emirates Stadium on December 29, 2019 in London, United KingdomGetty Images 87' - GOAL! Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea (Abraham): What a turnaround at the Emirates! It's a textbook goal on the counter-attack as Abraham nets an unlikely winner for Chelsea, slotting home after a Willian cutback.
However, we feel circumstances look more favourable for Burnley in Saturday's rematch. Sean Dyche's charges have been putting in impressive performances on their own patch since the summer, winning four of their six Premier League fixtures at Turf Moor overall.
Inter have scored at least two goals in their last three home matches. Brescia are without a win in their last 13 Serie A matches. Inter are unbeaten in five matches against Brescia. Inter are undefeated in 18 of their last 20 Serie A matches. Inter Milan aim to keep their faint title hopes alive when they host Brescia in Serie A on Wednesday night.

The Premier League's suggestions of a 30 per cent wage cut or deferral strategy was discussed in a conference call with the Professional Footballers' Association and the League Managers Association on Saturday, but the PFA responded saying it would reduce tax revenue for the National Health Service. Writing in his column for The Times, the former Manchester United forward says he would happily take a pay cut, but that not all footballers are in the same position and are currently "easy targets".
In the second half, Hunter missed the sort of routine tackle he had completed thousands of times, allowing Grzegorz Lato to run clear and set up Jan Domarski for the goal that ultimately stopped England from qualifying. There is a famous image of the inconsolable Hunter trudging from the Wembley turf, although it was a measure of Moore's personality that he was one of the first to drape an arm around him in an attempt to offer comfort.
In the end, Arsenal tired and Chelsea's pressure paid off but it still took a bad mistake from Bernd Leno to let them back in the game for their equaliser. Yes, Arsenal could have defended Chelsea's second goal better but otherwise they did not do very much wrong at the back. Gunners run out of steam - this time Media playback is not supported on this device Arteta admits Gunners need to improve 'many things' There have been three different Arsenal managers in the past three weeks, and three different voices for the players to listen to - but it felt like Arteta got his message across to them.
Lagging behind in the league, out of the Copa and (former captains) with Diego Godin and Gabi gone, everything pointed to the end of an era," said newspaper AS. Then suddenly, no. Against the hardest test of all, the best team in Europe, Simeone's Atletico rose again and produced one of their best performances in years.
A game of few clear-cut chances looked set to end goalless until Swansea old boy Pablo Hernandez's low shot rolled in off the post a minute from time. Leeds' return to the top flight could be secured when they host Barnsley on Thursday, if third-placed Brentford lose to Preston North End on Wednesday. The Elland Road club have found form when it really matters, with this triumph meaning they have taken 13 points from their last five games.

While the home side remain in the chase for the top six, but there are signs that they are running out of steam. the Swans have had massive problems in front of their own fans, having lost three of their last four at home ahead of this meeting with Fulham. Their playoff push is now relying on their strong away record, but will their form at the Liberty haunt them here?
Marcelo Bielsa’s side are back to their best, once again looking like the division’s top team. They’ve hit their stride and returned to the top two, shrugging off their habit of dropping points late in games. At their very best Leeds are superior to any Championship team and if they’re peaking now then that’s a worry for the whole division.

Like Juventus, seventh-placed Ajax have won all three European trophies in their various guises. That's a feat matched by only four other clubs - Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United. Eighth-placed Inter Milan won back-to-back European Cups in the mid-1960s but waited 44 years to be champions of Europe again. They also reached four Uefa Cup Finals in the 1990s, winning three. In ninth are Manchester United.
Managua is at the top of the table with 30 points and has many opportunities to defend his championship. However, with the last two matches being held draw, the top position of teachers and teachers Emilio Aburto is wavering more or less and if the second team plays well, they will probably lose the top spot. Managua couldn't wait for the opponent to come, so their mission was to return to victory immediately in this round. Deportivo Ocotal is not a difficult challenge for the home team and it is very likely that Managua will not be very difficult to win. Deportivo Ocotal are ranked 9th in the rankings but they have been caught up by the 10th team in terms of scores. This team's recent form is very poor as they lost four and drew one in the last five rounds. If the results are not improved, it is very easy to fall to the bottom of the table.

And in Megan Rapinoe’s case, an award like this is not just reward for her brilliance at the World Cup in the summer, but for using her platform to at least try to further some progressive causes. The argument that she only really contributed world class performances in the summer is a perfectly reasonable one, given that she scored zero goals in the last WMLS season for Seattle Reign.
It's better to speak about things that make me laugh. While Son Heung-min has performed admirably as a striker in Kane's previous injury lay-offs, Mourinho said he will effectively be without a recognised forward against Liverpool. We don't have another one. There is not a striker in the squad. We have only one, he is not fit, we don't have another one," Mourinho said.
He thinks about shooting but, 20 yards out, ducks inside onto his left foot as Jorginho slides in en route to another dimension and slaps a shot that Kepa is about to save easily, only for it to deflect off Zouma as he dives out of its way. LOVELY GOAL! Manchester City 2-1 Chelsea (Mahrez) Mahrez runs at Emerson then nips inside him just like Emerson must've known he was going to do and just as Kovacic arrives on the scene - too late to bring him down because he's now in the box, whereupon the Algerian smacks a low shot through Tomori's legs and into the far corner.
AFC Bournemouth will host Crystal Palace for this fixture of the league. I think, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Crystal Palace is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 11th place with 39 points. Also, they have three consecutive victories. Nevertheless, this will not be an easy task. The hosts want to win at all costs. AFC Bournemouth are currently on the 18th place with 27 points. Hosts are in danger of getting relegated. In any case, they want at all costs to stay in league. I think, the hosts will go in this game to victory.
Monfils is ranked 9th in the world and in 2019 beat Stan Wawrinka in last year’s Rotterdam final. This week he has beaten four unseeded player and like his opponent has smiled as other top seeds fell by the wayside. Monfils struggle in the ATP Cup and Australian Open. Last week though, he won the Open Sud de France but the highest ranked player beaten was Filip Krajinovic, who he also beat in Saturday’s semi-final.
Lovren has helped the club to this year's Premier League title, making 10 appearances in the top flight during the campaign. Overall, he has made 131 league appearances for Liverpool, scoring five goals, and also won the 2019 Champions League with the club. Zenit and other clubs are thought to have believed Lovren's deal ran out in summer 2021 but the option of a further year on his contract means Liverpool may be able to command a bigger fee for him.
It was for the team and we needed a different solution. We were losing 2-0, they were closing really well and I needed a second man with Dele Alli to come into the pockets. It was between Dier and Harry Winks but a hard decision. They understand, Eric understands but the reality it is never a easy and to make it clear, it was about the team not individuals.
I don't think there is any reason for him not to be in the right frame of mind," Mourinho told Sky Sports. He played two fantastic matches. He played in a back three against Wolves and a back four against Norwich. He showed me things I couldn't probably imagine if I had taken over in July. I know already what he can do in these positions, so this is crucial information for me.
He added: "Can anyone see us being caught?"Celtic players want to finish seasonWho is the greatest British manager?Bonner picks his greatest XIAberdeen, Hibernian and Rangers are keen to explore the options of playing the season to a finish. Brown's preference is also to complete the campaign, though he believes that prospect is becoming increasingly unlikely. Speaking to BBC Scotland's Sportsound programme, he said: "I want to play and show how well we've done over the whole season.
Arteta will surely look at the current crop and decide that at one minute past midnight on January 1, he wants to get some dry ink on a contract with a centre-half he can rely on. They say Kalidou Koulibaly is finally on the move from Napoli - and what a statement that would be. Arsenal's defensive frailty could be blamed on David LuizGetty Images 4.
Jong Utrecht and Jong AZ will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. Jong Utrecht this season have the following results: 5W, 4D and 5L.

That loan spell was converted into a club record £9m permanent move 12 months later, and Giuntini takes great satisfaction in seeing his former protege flourishing. It is always complicated for a young player to leave his reassuring environment," he says. But Odsonne probably needed to go elsewhere for new challenges in a different context. Moving to Celtic helped him to grow up. He is performing very well and feels loved by the Celtic fans.
